1.


General information

The company is a private company limited by shares, registered and domiciled in England and Wales. The address of the registered office is Unit 10 Hobson Insustrial Estate, Burnopfield, Newcastle Upon Tyne, NE16 6EA.


2.

Statement of compliance

The financial statements of the company have been prepared in compliance with United Kingdom Accounting Standards, including Financial Reporting Standard 102, ‘The Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the United Kingdom and the Republic of Ireland’ (‘FRS 102’) and the Companies Act 2006.

3.Accounting policies

 
3.1

Basis of preparation of financial statements

The financial statements have been prepared under the historical cost convention unless otherwise specified within these accounting policies and in accordance with Section 1A of Financial Reporting Standard 102, the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and the Republic of Ireland and the Companies Act 2006.

 
3.2

Going concern

The financial statements are prepared on the going concern basis. Despite the losses incurred in the year, the directors have not identified any material uncertainties that may cast significant doubt about the ability of the company to continue as a going concern. The directors have pledged their support to the company should it be needed to meet its obligations, and they also consider that further funding from shareholders will be available if required.
During the year the shareholders approved a reduction in share premium. The decision was legally authorised and had the effect of increasing the retained earnings by £5,767,569.

 
3.3

Revenue recognition

Turnover is recognised to the extent that it is probable that the economic benefits will flow to the company and the turnover can be reliably measured.
Turnover is measured as the consideration received or receivable, net of discounts and value added tax, at point of sale of finished goods.
Turnover for consignment stock represents the commission received on the sale. 

 
3.4

Interest income

Interest income is recognised in profit or loss using the effective interest method.

 
3.5

Finance costs

Finance costs are charged to profit or loss over the term of the debt using the effective interest method so that the amount charged is at a constant rate on the carrying amount. Issue costs are initially recognised as a reduction in the proceeds of the associated capital instrument.

3.Accounting policies (continued)

 
3.6

Pensions

Defined contribution pension plan

The company operates a defined contribution plan for its employees. A defined contribution plan is a pension plan under which the company pays fixed contributions into a separate entity. Once the contributions have been paid the company has no further payment obligations.

The contributions are recognised as an expense in profit or loss when they fall due. Amounts not paid are shown in accruals as a liability in the balance sheet. The assets of the plan are held separately from the company in independently administered funds.

 
3.7

Taxation

Tax is recognised in profit or loss except that a charge attributable to an item of income and expense recognised as other comprehensive income or to an item recognised directly in equity is also recognised in other comprehensive income or directly in equity respectively.

The current income tax charge is calculated on the basis of tax rates and laws that have been enacted or substantively enacted by the balance sheet date in the countries where the company operates and generates income.

 
3.8

Intangible assets

Intangible assets comprise goodwill which represents the difference between the fair value of its identifiable assets and liabilities at the date of acquisition of a business and the consideration paid.
Other intangible assets include website development costs.
Intangible assets are initially recognised at cost. After recognition, under the cost model, intangible assets are measured at cost less any accumulated amortisation and any accumulated impairment losses.
At each reporting date the company assesses whether there is any indication of impairment. If such indication exists, the recoverable amount of the asset is determined which is the higher of its fair value less costs to sell and its value in use. An impairment loss is recognised where the carrying amount exceeds the recoverable amount.

 Amortisation is provided on the following bases:

Website costs
-
10%
straight line

3.Accounting policies (continued)

 
3.9

Tangible fixed assets

Tangible fixed assets under the cost model are stated at historical cost less accumulated depreciation and any accumulated impairment losses. Historical cost includes expenditure that is directly attributable to bringing the asset to the location and condition necessary for it to be capable of operating in the manner intended by management.

Depreciation is charged so as to allocate the cost of assets less their residual value over their estimated useful lives, as follows.

Depreciation is provided on the following basis:

Plant and machinery
-
20%
straight line
Fixtures and fittings
-
20%
straight line
Computer equipment
-
33%
straight line

The assets' residual values, useful lives and depreciation methods are reviewed, and adjusted prospectively if appropriate, or if there is an indication of a significant change since the last reporting date.

Gains and losses on disposals are determined by comparing the proceeds with the carrying amount and are recognised in profit or loss.

 
3.10

Stocks

Stocks are stated at the lower of cost and net realisable value, being the estimated selling price less costs to complete and sell.

 
3.11

Financial instruments

The company only enters into basic financial instrument transactions that result in the recognition of financial assets and liabilities like trade and other debtors and creditors, loans from banks and other third parties, loans to related parties and investments in ordinary shares.


4.


Employees

The average monthly number of employees, including directors, during the year was 38 (2024 - 46).
